Deputy
presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte has just raised a lot of questions on
PNoy’s discretionary funds that both of them must detail and account for
IMMEDIATELY.
This
is an excerpt from a story in gmanews.tv yesterday, quoting Valte:
“Hindi
mambabatas ang Pangulong Aquino, he is the chief executive (and as such), he is
tasked to be the implementer of the programs of the executive para makatulong
sa kababayan."
Valte
added that Aquino’s work requires him to have funds that will address events that
are not anticipated.Now, first and foremost:
WHERE
ARE THE RECORDS, AND SUPPORTING DOCMENTS, of the funds that PNoy has spent so
far since he became president? WHERE OR
TO WHOM did the monies go to?
WHERE
IS THE PROOF that the funds were spent LEGALLY, and had gone to the rightful
beneficiary (ies) and not into the pockets, bank accounts or personal interests
of specific individuals?
I
wouldn’t know the exact amount but I will dare say that three years into the
PNoy presidency, we’re talking of at the very least TENS OF BILLIONS of pesos.
Anybody,
including those from Malacanang, correct me if I’m wrong.
Valte
said PNoy is the implementer of programs of the Executive branch of government,
which he heads, “para makatulong sa bayan.”
But
Valte DID NOT CITE EFVEN ONE of the supposed programs.
And
apart from immediately coming out with details of these supposed programs, PNoy
and Valte should PROVE THE LEGALITY, and JUSTIFY the importance of these.
Remember,
people, EVERY DEPARTMENT of the government HAS ITS OWN PROGRAMS to help us
ordinary citizens in everything we need for a better life.
So
WHAT ELSE can or must PNoy do for the welfare of the people that his entire
Cabinet cannot do, or have not been
doing? What law, IF ANY, allows this special privilege to him?
On
Valte’s claim that PNoy’s work requires him to have funds to address events
that had not been anticipated, I ask EXACTLY WHAT EVENTS are these?
Remember,
boys and girls:
We
NEVER SAW PNoy at the height of almost, if not all of the typhoons and natural
calamities that killed hundreds of our countrymen and devastated various areas
nationwide.
He
will only appear, especially in media AFTER THE CALAMITY,
Now,
Dinky Soliman’s Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) has HUNDREDS
OF MILLIONS at their disposal for disaster relief efforts.
And
I have NEVER HEARD OR READ of PNoy using his discretionary funds for any unforeseen
events since he became president. Anybody correct me if I’m wrong.
So
again, what events is Valte talking about?
PNoy’s
discretionary funds ARE FROM OUR TAXES, and the countless fees and
contributions we pay to his government for our needs. So don’t take this
lightly, people.
Include
this when you hit the streets again to demand that PNoy give up his
discretionary monies. 30
